Through flashbacks, it is revealed that Callie and Arizona had chosen a sperm donor to inseminate Arizona; they wanted a second child. However, during one of the pregnancy check-ups, their doctor couldn't find the heart beat because she had miscarried. Through the trial process, Cristina tells the jury that she had insisted working on the athlete's heart before his legs (which had been affected by a post-op infection); Callie did not agree to this sequencing, and that is why they went ahead with a second surgery on his legs.

Webber, who is eager to leave and despite Jo’s warnings, pushes himself too hard on the treadmill and falls down resulting in broken ribs. Because he’s going to be stuck in the hospital a little while longer with the residents, the residents plan a KFC Thanksgiving dinner.

Alex starts to get along with his dad, but it comes to a halting stop when his dad starts talking poorly of his mother. Meredith and Cristina argue while getting fitted for their bridesmaid dresses, but when they show up to April's wedding, they start to mend their differences by accepting that they are in different places.

Chief Hunt begins to ride Ross aggressively in the ER, not just after the botched surgery with Jimmy but (according to an accusative Webber) because he has learned that Ross had been sleeping with Cristina. Alex's emotional plea to Jo turns out to, in his mind, have been a marriage proposal; Jo turns him down, claiming they're not ready, but continues to stand by him when Jimmy passes away. Bailey and Ben start talking and working through his arrival. She tells him that she’s worried that he’ll be at home waiting on her just like Tucker used to do, and he resumes his internship... at Grey Sloan. Stephanie is having a hard time accepting that Jackson broke up with her for April and, with Leah's encouragement, someone anonymously files an HR complaint on behalf of the interns concerning sexual harassment from their attendings.

Derek has to tell Callie that they can’t continue with their research because of the guidelines in his contract with his colleagues at the White House. As if that's not enough, Callie learns the HR complaint was filed by Leah against her, as Leah felt that she was cheated out of a learning opportunity and needed to stand up for herself and others.

Production[edit]

Development[edit]

Grey's Anatomy was renewed for a tenth season on May 10, 2013.[26] This season is to include the 200th episode of the series, the fourth episode to air, "Puttin' on the Ritz".[27] This season was also split into 2 batches of episodes, each batch consisting of 12 uninterrupted episodes (excluding holidays). The mid-season premiere aired on February 27, 2014.[28]

Casting[edit]

In May 2012, it was announced that 6 original castmates - Ellen Pompeo, Sandra Oh, Justin Chambers, Chandra Wilson, James Pickens, Jr. and Patrick Dempsey had renewed their contracts through season 10, as Meredith Grey, Cristina Yang, Alex Karev, Miranda Bailey, Richard Webber and Derek Shepherd respectively.[29] It was revealed in June 2013, that 4 out of the 5 interns from Season 9 would be returning as series-regulars, including Camilla Luddington, Gaius Charles, Jerrika Hinton and Tessa Ferrer.[30] It was announced in July 2013 that Bobby Campo and Heather Hemmens were slated to guest star in the 2-part season premiere.[31] In August 2013, TVGuide reported that Dexter alum James Remar is set for a "mysterious" story-arc.[32] It was later revealed that Remar would be playing Alex Karev's drug addict father, whom he hasn't seen in more than 20 years.[33][34] In October 2013, it was announced that Hector Elizondo would be returning to the show, as Callie Torres' father, for a 'Callie-centric' episode that would air mid-November.[35] Other guest stars in November were Valerie Mahaffey and Gordon Clapp.

Isaiah Washington returned as Dr. Preston Burke for 1 episode to persuade Yang into taking over his hospital.

It was announced in January 2014 that Nickelodeon star Keke Palmer would guest star in an upcoming episode slated to air in March 2014.[36] It was also announced that Greek alum Paul James had been cast in a potentially recurring role.[37] It was also announced in January that the role of Zola (Meredith and Derek's daughter) was recast and would now be played by Heaven White, who is significantly older than Jela K. Moore, the actress who previously played Zola.[38]

On March 6, 2014, it was revealed that Isaiah Washington would reprise his role as Preston Burke for 1 episode in May 2014. It is believed that his reappearance will have ties with Cristina Yang's (Sandra Oh) departure from the show after 9 years. Dr. Burke was Cristina Yang's love-interest for much of his 3 years on the show. Washington was fired 7 years ago after he made a homophobic slur against castmate, T. R. Knight.[39] On March 18, 2014, it was announced that another Grey's Anatomy alum would return in May and stay until the end of the season. Caterina Scorsone will return to play Amelia Shepherd, one of Derek's 4 sisters. Scorsone was a regular on the Grey's Anatomy spin-off, Private Practice, where she also portrayed Amelia Shepherd.[40]

In April, news broke that Kelly McCreary would guest star in the Season 10 finale.[41] It wasn't known until the season finale aired that her character, Dr. Pierce, was hired by Dr. Yang to be the new head of cardio. It was also discovered at the end of the episode that Dr. Ellis Grey was her birth mother.

On August 13, 2013, Sandra Oh revealed that after the tenth season, she would be leaving Grey's Anatomy.[42][43] It was announced on March 25, 2014, that Gaius Charles and Tessa Ferrer were not having their options picked up for Season 11, meaning that Season 10 would be their last season as regulars on the show.[44] On January 23, 2014, it was announced that Ellen Pompeo and Patrick Dempsey had renewed their contracts for another 2 seasons, as Meredith Grey and Derek Shepherd respectively, meaning their characters will be staying on the medical drama for seasons 11 and 12.[45] On May 2, 2014, it was announced that the rest of the 6 original castmates, Justin Chambers, Chandra Wilson, and James Pickens Jr., excluding Sandra Oh, had renewed their contracts for another 2 seasons (11 and 12). Sara Ramirez also renewed her contract for another 2 seasons.[46]

Critical response[edit]

Many critics saw Sandra Oh's performance as Cristina Yang throughout the season as worthy of a Primetime Emmy Award nomination

The tenth season of the medical-drama received positive reviews from the critics with many referring to the season as a return to form for the long-running show. The season holds a 100% positive score on Rotten Tomatoes and a "Fresh" rating. Annie Barett of Entertainment Weekly gave a positive review to the season and wrote, "There's true sorrow here along with the passion, which keeps their dynamic so intriguing to me."[94]

The A.V. Club also praised the tenth season of the show stating, "At its best, Grey's Anatomy is about everyday bravery, sacrifice, and courage. At its worst, it's a melodramatic, moralizing soap opera. Both sides are on display as the show heads confidently into its tenth season."[95]

The Loop also acknowledged the return to form giving a positive review, "After a shaky start to its tenth season, Grey's Anatomy has picked up the pace over the past 2 episodes and is once again showing a great deal of promise that it can revive itself after nearly a decade on the air."[96]

Many sources, including Rachel Simon of Bustle and Nicole Pomarico of Wetpaint, claimed that Sandra Oh's performance during her tenth and final season on Grey's Anatomy is worthy of an Emmy nomination. Simon stated "She made us care about Grey’s in a way we hadn’t in years, bringing us into Cristina’s life and mind, fully and ferociously. The show has been good for several seasons now; because of Oh’s performance this year, it once again became great."[97][98]

On Oh's exit Entertainment Weekly wrote, "Cristina and Meredith is the friendship to end all friendships—some would even argue it’s what the show is about. Cristina is Meredith’s person. How could she possibly function without Cristina in her life? More than that, Cristina on her own was a great character. She didn’t want kids, she didn’t need a man, and she’d rather receive compliments on her brain instead of her beauty. She was everything we needed in a character—and more. Seeing her go was devastating."[99]
